Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device that indicates when exterior corrosion on a metallic structure located in soil, water or concrete and that is subjected to external influence reaches a predetermined depth, i.e., a corrosion critical to the metallic structure.
  • test plates which is based on the fact that test plates, weighed in advance, are buried adjacent to the pipe and electrically connected to the pipe. After a certain predetermined time, the plates are dug up and the occurred general and localized corrosion, respectively, of the test plates are evaluated by measuring pit depth and evaluation of mass change, respectively.
  • the technique of employing test plates has, on one hand, economical disadvantages as a consequence of high costs of burying and digging up as well as evaluation, and information about serious corrosion is, on the other hand, often obtained far later than when it has occurred.
  • ER-probes are based on the principle that the resistance in a wire or a sheet of the metal increases when the amount of metal decreases as a consequence of corrosion. In this case, the rate of corrosion can be measured continuously. ER-probes provide good information about the magnitude of the general corrosion, however no or at least only a very small indication of local corrosion attacks is obtained, such as pitting, since they only marginally have an impact on the total resistance of the wire/sheet. For a pipe conduit, it is the pitting corrosion rate that is the most important parameter, since a local pit may give rise to leakage.
  • JP 2107947 discloses a solution to measure corrosion on a metallic buried pipe.
  • a box body comprising closed hollow spaces is buried in the vicinity of the pipe.
  • the box body has a wall thickness that is less than the wall thickness of the metallic pipe.
  • the closed hollow spaces are provided with a pressurized medium having a predetermined pressure via connected conduits. The pressure of the medium is measured by a pressure gauge.
  • a pressure gauge When the wall of the box body has corroded so much that a hole has been formed in the wall, the pressure in the closed hollow space will fall, which is detected by means of the pressure gauge. By detecting a reduction of the pressure, information is thus obtained about the wall of the box body having corroded so that the wall has been perforated, and by that the corrosion has reached a critical level.
  • JP 2107947 has the disadvantage that it does not reflect the real conditions that the metallic pipe conduit usually is subjected to.
  • the box body will not be electrically insulated and will accordingly not be subjected to alternating current influence and high current densities in the same way as a metallic pipe having a protective coating.
  • moisture may migrate in, for instance, from the soil via a local defect in the protective coating, between the protective coating and the metallic structure, whereby a local corrosion cell may be formed under the coating.
  • This local corrosion cell may give rise to such corrosion that the coating risks peeling off from the surface of the metallic pipe.
  • the object of the present invention is to rapidly get an indication of when corrosion, above all localized corrosion such as a pit, attains a predetermined critical level for a pipe conduit installed in the ground or another metallic structure installed in, or in another way in contact with, soil, water or concrete environment.

Abstract

La présente invention porte sur un dispositif pour indiquer une corrosion critique prédéterminée d'une structure métallique située dans un sol, dans de l'eau ou dans un environnement en béton. Le dispositif comprend une sonde 1 qui a un contenant tubulaire fermé 2 prévu pour contenir un milieu sous pression, et qui a une épaisseur de paroi t qui correspond à la corrosion critique prédéterminée. Un revêtement protecteur 3 est disposé essentiellement sur la totalité de l'extérieur 7 du contenant, à l'exception d'une surface 4 qui est prévue pour être soumise à une attaque de corrosion. Le contenant 2 est laissé se corroder de telle sorte que le contenant devient perforé, après quoi la pression du milieu sous pression chute. Le changement de pression est mesuré à l'aide d'un manomètre 13, et, de cette façon, une information est obtenue au sujet du fait que la corrosion a atteint le niveau critique prédéterminé.
